The deckled edge on the Somerset paper gives this mini edition a softer boundary than the straight-cut or hand-torn alternatives in Bonnie and Clyde's catalogue — the natural feathering of the paper's edge rather than a deliberate tear or a machine cut. At £160 this is the most accessible entry point into her work at Print Club London, and the smaller format suits the intimacy of the subject: the sky at dusk, the quality of light that's warm and slightly hazy at the same time.
Giclee with silkscreen glosses allows the piece to carry both photographic detail and the depth of applied gloss elements. Deckled edge Somerset paper, edition of 60, signed.
ABOUT THE ARTIST
Bonnie and Clyde
Bonnie and Clyde is an artist and printmaker who uses photography, paint, collage and print to construct graphic mixed media pieces.

Having studied 3D Design at Kingston University Bonnie and Clyde set up her own graphic design business in Manchester, producing everything from posters, tee-shirts and book sleeves to websites and full festival campaigns. With these design sensibilities under her belt she now lives and works in Brighton.

She has had solo shows at Lawrence Alkin Gallery in Soho, London, Lilford Gallery in Canterbury and Leeds College of Art.
